    The Knife’s Edge

    The other day I got a message from ZanarNaryon telling me they had created a TVTropes page for To Serve In Hell. Now, TVTropes can be a dangerous place to start reading, unless you have a few hours to spend getting lost in it. But if you want to check it out, please

    Not with a bang, but a whimper

    Hey friends.

    I didn’t used to believe in writer’s block as such. I always thought the phenomenon was a manifestation of something else in a person’s life. I also thought the cure for it was just to sit down and write any garbage you can. Editing should never mix with drafting, and if you can get yourself to stop editing, you’ll achieve more and better drafting—which can then be edited.

    Ping 2: Live and In Person

    Almost exactly 2.5 years ago, my family and I bought tickets to Whinny City Pony Con 2020. Of course there was no such con, at least not in a physical capacity. But good egg that he is, Charlie Worthley (con organizer extraordinaire) has made it effortless to transfer our tickets from that long-ago time to right now, despite all that’s transpired between.

    I live.

    Time's gotten away from me.

    2020 got weird. My 2021 started with an honest effort to get back to normal. But after I started getting treated for depression, I began to see more and more ways to improve things in my daily and family life that hadn't fit together very well in years. Including some of the core issues that had pointed me in the direction of MLP in the first place.

    Artistic Expression

    It's been too long. Things are great. Really, really great. Not so much for writing, but for different modes of expression and life.

You people are awesome · 5:24am Aug 14th, 2015

So I pulled up the front page tonight and saw this at the top:

Thank you! :heart: I find that writing often takes time away from other hobbies (e.g., sleep), so it is delightful to receive such a response.

When my muse strikes again and new horsewords appear, you'll be among the first to know. :derpytongue2:

Congratulations! Next stop: the featured box! Get writing.

Congratulations! Make something good and they will come! That reminds me... I need to go mow that cornfield down in my backyard.

3318655 Indeed! I wondered if this story had the potential to get there. I am thrilled by the response it's received, but I think its first 12-24 hours were just a bit too slow and downvote-y to satisfy the whims of the feature-box algorithm.

3318808 I'd better get mowing, too. :rainbowlaugh: What do you think I should build next? Perhaps a 2nd-person HiE where Anon helps Twilight and Moondancer get pregnant? :trollestia: :pinkiesick:

If you were going to do an actual HiE story where a guy gets ponies pregnant there really is only ONE logical answer for the guy. "Rowdy" Roddy Piper as Sam Hell from the cult classic 1988 B-movie Hell Comes to Frogtown. In a world where Sam Hell is the only fertile man left, he has a lot of work on his lap! You could even paraphrase a line from another Piper movie They Live, "I'm here to chew gum and spank flank... and I'm all outta gum."

As for me I'm working on some sort of kind of maybe horror story perhaps. Nothing too gruesome but who knows what the barn owls bring.

Congrats! Heh heh, horsewords...

3319686 As always, I bow to your mastery of B-movie madness. :twilightsmile: (Though in all seriousness, I couldn't write that, except maybe as a joke fic that doesn't end up with events fitting the premise...)

3320241 I don't remember who I first heard it from, but now I can't stop saying it. :rainbowlaugh:

3320375
It's all good! In all seriousness I wouldn't expect you to write something like that anyway heh.

I told you it would be a success! XD

3321097 True! It needed to go through all those drafts, though. The Daring crush and Chaos dimension both needed to be in there.

Oh, hey! Congrats, man! Keep writing! :pinkiehappy:

3321290 Thanks man! I plan to! :coolphoto:
